  1. I don't think getting angry with yourself helps - I've been there when trying to eat healthily and the angrier I got with myself, the worse I found it was to fight it. When you screw up, don't beat yourself up about it. Also, don't write the rest of the day off. Once you have done one day gluten free, remind yourself the next day that you're already one...
  2. Thanks to some really helpful comments on here to my last post, I'm having my bloods taken on Friday to test for coeliac (along with thyroid problems, colitis and IBD). Now, my doctor reckons I have IBS with NCGS - before I went to the doctor I stopped eating gluten and felt great, so she's recognised I definitely have a problem with it - and boy, doing...

Went to the doctor yesterday and she was really understanding - she said it sounds like a textbook case of IBS with NCGS, but she's sending me off for blood tests for coeliac, anaemia and thyroid problems.

Since yours get worse with movement too I'd guess that it could be connected!
  7. This is interesting; I'm yet to be tested (going to the doctor on Wed), but when I had my endoscopy before I was diagnosed with acid reflux, they also mentioned how much bile was in my stomach. I have no idea what it means though haha, just thought it was an interesting coincidence!
  8. Hi guys, I'm going to see my GP on Wednesday morning in the hopes of finally getting to the bottom of my constant stomach issues. For about ten years I've suffered with stomach aches - when I was younger I had chronic diarrhoea, now it's turned to constipation. Unexplained tummy aches that can either be high up around my stomach, or low down like...
